Full digital set-up on tension control system
A new digital tension controller is claimed to be one of the most comprehensive tension control systems currently available
The controller provides control for any servo system driven by a voltage or a current command signal.
The controller can be used for hydraulic and/or electric motion control applications.
The KMC series implements a dual processor design, comprised of a 16-bit microprocessor for executing high-level motion programs and a 32-bit digital signal processor (DSP) for high speed servo control.
The KMC series offers a valuable combination of performance and ease-of-use for one and two axis systems.
Smooth, precise motion boosts throughput improves quality, and extends machine life.
It has the flexibility of closing the positioning loop with different types of positioning feedback devices like linear displacement transducers, incremental encoders, and resolvers.
The KMC series can be programmed through a personal computer with dedicated KMC utility software designed to operate in MicrosoftO Windows a environment.
The KMC Utility software is designed as a user-friendly development tool and is provided as a standard with the controller.
With menu driven commands, all motion parameters can be viewed and changed with few simple key strokes.
User programs are stored in RAM and backed-up in flash memory for maximum protection.
MOTION Features:.
* 1 to 2 axes of control - It can be used for hydraulic and/or electric motion control applications.
* Modular construction with field replaceable components.
* Can be purchased as a stand alone unit.
* Can be used with a PLC or relay system.
* Efficient communication to popular PLCs and HMIs, the KMC mirrors PLC addressing, makes system integration quick and easy.
* Ease of converting existing stroke systems.
